Property details

About 85 Whiting Pond Rd

Welcome to your private retreat in the heart of Greenfield Hill. Set on two lush, landscaped acres at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, this classic 4-bedroom Colonial boasts the charm, space, and setting that are becoming increasingly rare. Framed by stone walls and blooming gardens, it offers privacy and natural beauty in every direction. The backyard is made for living-sprawl out on the oversized deck, gather around the fire pit, or let the kids and dogs run in the open yard. Inside, there's room for everyone to spread out and settle in. A sun-filled front-to-back Living Room with a fireplace, a formal Dining Room, and an Eat-In Kitchen that looks out to the yard make everyday moments feel special. The cozy Family Room features another fireplace, custom-built-ins, and a wet bar-perfect for movie nights or casual get-togethers. Upstairs, the spacious Primary Suite features a private bath and a flexible Bonus Room, ideal for a home office, nursery, or workout space. Three additional bedrooms and an updated hall bath complete the second floor. The finished lower level adds extra space for play, work, or hobbies. With hardwood floors throughout (except the bonus room), six heating and cooling zones, a full-house generator, and tons of storage, including a large attic, basement, and 2-car garage, this home is as practical as it is peaceful. All just minutes to downtown Fairfield, schools, beaches, and train.
